"If we make the necessary efforts to address this challenge of reordering society in order to solve these problems – and supposing I’m wrong or scientists are wrong, 97 percent of them all wrong – supposing they are, what’s the worst that can happen? We put millions of people to work; we make life healthier; we give ourselves greater security through greater independence – that’s the downside. This is not a matter of politics or partisanship; it’s a matter of science and stewardship. And it’s not a matter of capacity; it’s a matter of willpower."

If we make the necessary efforts to address this challenge of reordering society in order to solve these problems

It’s not enough to just solve a problem, Comrades!

No, first we must make a necessary effort. Not to solve the problem, but to address the challenge.

But don’t be lulled into thinking that addressing the challenge is all you need to do to solve the problem. Quite aside from the fact that one means pretty much the same as the other, there’s also the not-so-little matter of reordering society, without which the problem will have no hope of ever being solved.

And how do we reorder society? We can’t just reorder society any more than we can solve the problems that reordering society will accomplish. We’ll need even more verbs!

We must start thinking of what we must do to call attention to the need to raise awareness of how much we care about the necessary effort we must make to address this challenge of reordering society in order to solve these problems by holding discussions on the various ways we can demand the funding we require to study the possible steps we can take to eventually reach a solution that will command constant funding to allow any further measures that are needed to avert catastrophe by fixing whatever isn’t working.

In Soviet era awareness was raised world-wide by requiring all stores in Soviets to have signs with slogans in windows. "Workers of the world unite!" signs in Soviet windows raised awareness all over the world. Signs in windows such as "Workers of the world fight climate change!" or "All rise to the struggle against climate change!" and "Climate change is real, Capitalism is fake!" in store windows for all to see as a constant non-stop campaign of awareness will do wonders.

"Everyone that is not part of the solution will be shot." makes a good sign too.

Another downside: All of the pure political power in such a society as the one Kerry et al. envision turns the nature of government into an even more lawless institution than it is today. The nature of politics in such an environment becomes nothing but one of loyalty and fealty to the one that holds these ungoverned executive powers. In other words a feudal system. It is by design a step backwards for civilization and will produce the kind of aristocracy born booted and spurred to ride us and the kind of society that engenders.

Comrade Kerry has 3% of the world's sickest scientists laughing at him. My guess is they all work for the Koch brothers.

FORWARD

P.S.“But let me ask you something. If we do what you know you can do as entrepreneurs, as scientists, as innovators, if we do it, and if we were wrong about the science – which I don’t believe we are, but if we were – and we move to new and sustainable energy, what is the worst thing that could happen to us?"

The uncontested absurdities of today are the accepted slogans of tomorrow. They come to be accepted by degrees, by precedent, by implication, by erosion, by default, by dint of constant pressure on one side and constant retreat on the other - until the day when they are suddenly declared to be the country's official ideology. ~ Ayn Rand
